The UK has incredible information resources, ranging from NHS data collected as part of patient care to custom data collected for research projects such as the genetic information on human disease in the UK Biobank. Protecting patient information has always been one of the highest priorities for these resources, making it difficult for researchers to combine the information held in different places. Unfortunately, this means we are missing opportunities to answer questions about human health, disease and care.This work will bring together experts from across the UK to develop new ways to use the information held in different places, while still keeping individual patient identities private. The outputs will directly support HDR UK’s ambitious projects, while setting up foundations that will enable the wider research community to make discoveries that improve people’s lives.
